The Beautiful CEO's Personal Mad Doctor

Chapter 349: Chapter 349: You Haven’t Eradicated the Root Yet

Zhu Yonghong’s face flushed crimson from the scolding!

If anyone else had been so unreasonable, he would have spat in their face!

But this person was Cheng Yuan!

Zhu Yonghong’s heart was filled with a rage he couldn’t vent. He could only suppress it, feeling like he was about to explode!

Just as Zhu Yonghong was about to cough up blood from holding it in, his assistant’s cry of surprise came from beside him: ”He’s awake! Governor Zhou is awake!!”

SWISH!

Zhu Yonghong whipped his head around to look at Zhou Yadong, an expression of utter shock on his face!

’How could this be?’

’Has Zhou Yadong really woken up?’

His complexion was no longer deathly pale but had regained some color, and his tightly furrowed brow had smoothed out!

Zhu Yonghong rushed forward, placing his hand on Zhou Yadong’s wrist to check his pulse. And then, his entire world came crashing down! His worldview was utterly shattered!

’Young Master Cheng clearly used the Draining Needle Technique. Logically, the cold qi should be even more concentrated. So why is there not a single trace of cold qi left in Governor Zhou’s body?’

”The cold qi is gone! There isn’t a trace of it left!!”

Yin Suwen, weeping with joy, threw herself onto Zhou Yadong excitedly. ”Old Zhou, you’re awake? You’re really awake?”

Zhou Yadong felt fantastic, as if he had taken a Ten-Complete Great Replenishing Pill. His entire body was brimming with strength!

With a SUDDEN movement, Zhou Yadong sat up and looked at Zhu Yonghong with a face full of gratitude. ”Professor Zhu, thank you for saving my life! I will etch this kindness in my heart and never forget it for all eternity!”

Zhu Yonghong’s old face instantly turned beet red. He was so mortified he wished he could find a hole to crawl into!

”Governor Zhou, it was not I who saved you. Just now, your condition relapsed and became extremely perilous. It was Young Master Cheng who saved you!”

’Young Master Cheng?’

’Didn’t I kick that kid out?’

Zhou Yadong turned his head with a bewildered look and saw Cheng Yuan standing to the side, smiling at him.

Zhou Yadong was completely baffled. He looked to his wife for help. ”Suwen, what in the world is going on?”

Choking back sobs, Yin Suwen recounted everything that had just happened.

The expression on Zhou Yadong’s face shifted continuously!

’So everything Young Master Cheng said was true!’

’That was a close call!’

’I took a trip to the Ghost Gate and nearly died!’

Zhou Yadong apologized sincerely, ”Young Master Cheng, I was wrong just now. I was rude to you! I offer you my sincerest apologies! From this moment on, you are my, Zhou Yadong’s, lifesaver! Your business is my business! Have your friend come to the bank this afternoon. I will personally handle his loan!”

Cheng Yuan grinned. ”You just need to put in a good word, Governor Zhou.”

Zhou Yadong’s expression turned serious. ”That won’t do. A friend of Young Master Cheng is a friend of mine. I must treat this matter with the utmost seriousness!”

Cheng Yuan shrugged and said in a gentle voice, ”Governor Zhou, please lie down. I’m going to remove the needles.”

The moment he heard the words ”remove the needles,” Zhou Yadong’s expression changed as he recalled what happened earlier!

Zhou Yadong asked with a slight tremor in his voice, ”Young Master Cheng, my condition suddenly worsened right after the needles were removed last time. Will it be okay to remove them now?”

Cheng Yuan said calmly, ”Your condition relapsed because I wasn’t here. Don’t worry, lie down.”

Professor Zhu, standing by, chimed in with a smile, ”Governor Zhou, Young Master Cheng’s medical skills are a hundred, even a thousand times greater than this old man’s! You can rest assured and lie down!”

Only then did Zhou Yadong lie down, looking at Cheng Yuan with some nervousness.

Cheng Yuan raised a hand and pointed.

SWOOSH! SWOOSH! SWOOSH!

Dozens of Silver Needles flew up at once, landing precisely inside Professor Zhu’s needle case.

This move stunned everyone once again!

Everyone regarded it as a divine miracle!

Even Zhou Yadong forgot his fear. His breathing nearly stopped as he exclaimed, ”An Immortal’s technique! Young Master Cheng possesses the techniques of an Immortal! No wonder you could pull me back from the Ghost Gate!”

THUD!

Zhu Yonghong dropped to his knees and kowtowed heavily to Cheng Yuan three times!

”Divine Doctor Cheng, I implore you to accept me as your apprentice! I don’t ask to reach your level; if I can just achieve Qi-Guided Needle, my life will be complete!”

The assistants at the side looked at each other, all of them completely dumbfounded!

’Professor Zhu is a leading authority in the medical field of the Dragon Country!’

’And he’s kneeling to this kid??’

Wang Chaodong reacted the fastest. With a THUD, he knelt and shouted, ”Grand-disciple greets Grandmaster!”

The other assistants quickly knelt as well, following his example.

”All of you, get up! Don’t do this in the future. Don’t just drop to your knees at the slightest provocation.”

Cheng Yuan raised a hand, helping Zhu Yonghong and the others up, and took the opportunity to probe Zhu Yonghong’s root and bone.

Cheng Yuan shook his head gently. ”Professor Zhu, you have no talent for the Martial Dao. You will never be able to break through to the Grandmaster realm in this lifetime, nor will you achieve Qi-Guided Needle! I cannot accept you as a formal disciple. At most, I can take you as a Named Disciple. Are you willing?”

Zhu Yonghong was ecstatic. ”This disciple is willing! Please, Teacher, have some tea!”

Zhu Yonghong poured a cup of tea and presented it to Cheng Yuan with the utmost respect.

Cheng Yuan took a small sip and said calmly, ”Yonghong, be more low-key in your words and actions from now on. There are many existences in this world that you cannot afford to provoke and cannot comprehend.”

”This disciple will remember Teacher’s teachings.”

Zhou Yadong and Zhang Guoqiang, watching from the side, were green with envy. Professor Zhu had truly turned a disaster into a blessing!

’Even though he’s only a Named Disciple, at least he’s now one of Young Master Cheng’s people!’

Zhou Yadong said impatiently, ”Young Master Cheng, there’s no time to lose. Let’s set off now and have your friend go to the bank immediately!”

Cheng Yuan said coolly, ”Governor Zhou, you’re too hasty. Your illness hasn’t been cured at the root yet!”

Zhou Yadong’s expression changed. ”Young Master Cheng, haven’t I fully recovered?”

Cheng Yuan pointed to the Promotion and Wealth Chair and said calmly, ”Do you remember what I said? The root of your illness is not in your body. It’s in that thing!”

SWISH!

Everyone instinctively turned their heads to look at the Promotion and Wealth Chair.

When Cheng Yuan had said this earlier, everyone had mocked him, practically spitting in his face.

But now, no one dared to question him.

Zhou Yadong suppressed his heartache over the cost and said in a deep voice, ”Since Young Master Cheng says it’s the root of the illness, then I’ll destroy it! Suwen, find a hammer!”

Yin Suwen said, her heart aching at the thought of the money, ”Old Zhou, we spent thirty million on this. Are we really going to destroy it? It’s just a chair. Can it really be that sinister?”

Zhou Yadong barked angrily, ”Suwen, are you questioning Young Master Cheng?”

Yin Suwen remembered Cheng Yuan’s miraculous performance from just moments before and quickly apologized. ”Young Master Cheng, I’m just a simple woman, prone to being short-sighted. Please don’t lower yourself to my level.”

Cheng Yuan waved his hand dismissively. ”It was my oversight. After all, it’s something worth thirty million. It’s indeed unreasonable for me to ask you to destroy it with just my words. In that case, let me show you what’s really hidden inside this chair!”

Cheng Yuan circulated the Celestial Witch Heart Method, raised his hand, and pointed at the Promotion and Wealth Chair. An incredibly dense stream of black qi shot from his finger, instantly striking the chair!

The previously still Promotion and Wealth Chair suddenly began to shake violently, emitting a large cloud of black qi!

An enormous python head rose from within the black qi. Its two terrifying vertical pupils stared coldly at Cheng Yuan!
